Port Hacking Cruising Division Wattamolla (Providential Cove)
Port Hacking Cruising Division Wattamolla (Providential Cove) Approach from the SE heading NW to clear reef #1 and stay to seaward of reef #2. The depth is good off the northern cliffs. Run parallel to the cliffs with reef #2 to seaward and continue to the SW shore where a turn can be made around reef #3 to the anchor area marked in blue. Protection direction The anchorage is protected from most winds less than 20 knots, but not protected from easterlies and vulnerable to SE/E/NE swell. Depth of water Good depth all the way in with sufficient clearance to all reefs and shore lines. The average depth in the anchoring area is 3 metres. Anchoring Best position behind reef #3. If any swell comes through it’s advisable to use a stern anchor to hold the bow to the swell. Description This inlet as well as having great historical interest is in one of the world’s first national parks. It is accessible by road via the Audley weir or by sea. Approaching Wattamolla from the sea on the right day is a privilege that would not be forgotten. After a short run from Port Hacking the inlet materialises via a gap in the high sandstone cliffs. The entrance is guarded by three reefs and beyond is a beautiful white beach whose backdrop in a high waterfall cascading into the lagoon behind the beach. The holding is good into sand; however, care must be taken to choose the right weather conditions. You could imagine yourself to be at an exotic south sea paradise and only one hours sailing from Port Hacking. -

Submission As an Attachment Via Email E
To the Department of Industry Submission regarding the Proposal to grant a commercial lease for Katoomba Airfield Submitted by Manda Kaye CO-FOUNDER BLUEMTNSPEACEKEEPERS, SMALL BUSINESS OWNER AND MTNS MADE CREATIVE [email protected] / bluemtnspeacekeepers.org July 26, 2019 Mr Glen Bunny Department of Industry, Crown Lands [email protected] Dear Mr Bunny RE: LX 602686 – submission as an objection to proposed lease of Katoomba Airfield I am a small business owner, a member of the growing Mtns Made creative community and one of the co-founders of Blue Mtns Peacekeepers. I’m writing to you to express my deep concern over the proposal to commercially develop Katoomba Airfield, which, if it is granted, will profit the leaseholder at an enormous cost to our local community, environment and economy. Who are Blue Mtns Peacekeepers and what is our position? Blue Mtns Peacekeepers was begun by a group of local citizens who are deeply concerned about the proposed commercial lease of Katoomba Airfield. We speak for the vulnerable plant and animal species in this glorious and fragile World Heritage Area where we live. We represent the many residents and visitors who come here to experience the natural quiet of the bush. It is the mission of the Blue Mtns Peacekeepers to protect the tranquil environment that supports the biodiversity of our beloved Blue Mountains National Park - for its own sake, but also, because this is the bedrock of our local economy. We object to the approval of any commercial lease on the crown land containing Katoomba Airfield. To protect the ecology and the economy that depends on it, this crown land should be added to the Blue Mountains National Park and World Heritage Area by which it is surrounded. -

History Walk
History Walk HENRY LAWSON’S already a highly urbanised nation by the time the colonies Federated in 1901. The ‘Legend of the NORTH SYDNEY Bush’ had great resonance in the city. A walking tour from McMahons And yet Lawson, too, spent much of his time in Point to Balls Head Sydney – and North Sydney. He lived in numerous dwellings between 1885, when he Distance: Approx. 3 Km stayed with Mrs Emma Brooks in East Crescent Approximate time: 2.5 hours Street, and 1920. You will pass by some of his Grading: High (there are residences on this walk. Other dwellings and several sets of places of significance include: Strathmere, Lord steep inclines and Street in 1899; rooms above the Coffee Palace stairs to negotiate) in Miller Street run by Mrs Isabel Byers who would care for Lawson for many years after this; Chaplin Cottage, Charles Street where Lawson’s second child Bertha was born in 1900; and Dind’s Hotel at the bottom of Alfred Street Milsons Point – the subject of the very funny poem ‘Dinds Hotel’ – … We hurried out of Campbell Street, and round to Dind’s hotel Where after two long beers apiece, we found the world “orright”… Curiously while Australia’s rural landscape was being well-interpreted and mythologised in poetry and prose, the communities around Sydney’s by-then famous Harbour were rarely explored in writing.

Research shows that only 26% percent of riders in NSW are women (2016 Bicycle NSW Bike Riders Survey), a statistic we want to drastically shake up through Gear Up Girl. In 2017, the ride will attract 1,500 + women who will enjoy either the 20km Beach Ride, the 40km Classic Ride or 60km ride Coast Ride. Our three key communication messages to promote Gear Up Girl are: • In celebration of International Women’s Day (8 March), Gear Up Girl will take place on Sunday 12 March to encourage all women to get on their bike. • Help us set a new world record for the ‘largest women’s community bike ride’. • Bicycle NSW and the Heart Foundation are on a mission to communicate some hard hitting facts about Heart Disease and the importance of exercise. 3 GEAR UP GIRL 12 MARCH 2017 BICYCLE NEW SOUTH WALES The Heart Foundation Gear Up Girl is presented by Bicycle NSW. -

MISREPORTING BY CENTENNIAL COAL… Nature Conservation Council (NCC) investigative team found a major coal company in NSW, Centennial Coal, massively underestimated carbon emissions from its mines for at least 10 years. Last month, Centennial Coal applied to open a new mine near Lithgow called Angus Place. The company claims its mine will generate 0.36 million tonnes of carbon pollution a year, but the true number is 10 million tonnes a year. The company under-reported its emissions by 97%! Digging deeper, NCC discovered this was not the first time Centennial Coal has made such a colossal “mistake”. Documents show the company has massively under-estimated carbon emissions in relation to several of its coal mines dating back to 2010. NCC passed this information on to the Sun Herald, and the findings were published on page 3 of their 10 May 2020 edition – see https://www.smh.com.au/environment/climate-change/we- stuffed-up-coal-miner-admits-to-submitting-wrong-emissions-data-20200508-p54r6i.html NCC also asked the NSW Planning Department to investigate and prosecute Centennial Coal if it has broken any laws. Coal mining and coal-fired power generation contribute to devastating bushfires, floods and heat waves like those we saw last summer. We must do everything we can to switch from dirty fossil fuels to clean wind, solar and storage to prevent the climate heating to dangerous levels. … AND THE TRUE IMPACT OF USE OF WATER BY COAL MINING INDUSTRY The Australian Conservation Foundation (ACF) has released a new report that brings us closer to understanding the true impact the coal industry has on our water across this dry continent of ours. -
